Fusion

  • 124,000 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Ford Fusion. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idle, it responded as if it was shutting down. When gasoline was added to the vehicle, it only accelerated up to 5 mph. The vehicle had to be shut down and restarted in order to regain proper acceleration. The failure recurred three times over a period of four months. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, who diagnosed that the vehicle had an internal short. The throttle body assembly needed to be replaced and the PCM reset in order to repair the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the defect. The approximate failure mileage was 124,000.
